Chapter 846: Celestial Drill

"Do you know why I try to learn all the languages of all the people I meet, Undead Princess?"

"..."

"Because when I do my villainous monologues, I want them to hear my words in their native language — it is much more impactful that way. I learned Theran's language too, 3 of them including your kingdom's."

"..."

"But with you, all of that becomes utterly meaningless. And yet… I still do it, Undead Princess. Because I believe, even mindless, you deserve to be treated in a way which befits your status."

"Khhgrah…"

"Hm, that is right."

Riley has been talking for several minutes now, and all he receives as a response is the darkness of space, as well as the growls and grunts of Princess Esme.
